Chapter 434 - 405: Yuan Shendao’s Fury
The Sect Protection Array of the Yin Yang Demon Sect is indeed powerful, but in front of Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, it seems somewhat inadequate.
Facing the attack of Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, the array couldn’t last long before it shattered with a bang.
The array shattered.
Blood Qi pervaded.
The terrifying power crushed down, and the entire Yin Yang Demon Sect seemed to be plunged into an apocalyptic scene.
All the cultivators of the Yin Yang Demon Sect turned pale at this sight.
Yuan Xiao’s expression was also filled with terror.
The power of Demon Venerable Xuan Yin was much more frightening than he imagined, even if the opponent and Lv Chunyang were mutually wounded, their strength was still not something ordinary people could contend with.
The Sect Protection Array of the Yin Yang Demon Sect could withstand for a while even against ordinary Mahayana Stage experts.
However.
In the face of Demon Venerable Xuan Yin.
The power of such an array was indeed inadequate.
"In the end, there’s no escaping this!"
Yuan Shendao sighed, knowing there was no way to overcome this tribulation with Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s arrival.
Just like the Pure Yang Sword Immortal back then.
Yuan Shendao would not naively think that if he did not act, there would be a chance to escape this tribulation.
In the face of such powerful beings, hiding was of no use.
So.
The moment the Sect Protection Array was breached, Yuan Shendao suddenly appeared. It felt as if some kind of seal was undone, his aura gradually rose, and in almost an instant, he had broken through the barrier of Void Refining and stepped into the Tribulation Stage.
Moreover.
Upon entering the Tribulation Stage.
Yuan Shendao’s cultivation rose without showing any signs of slowing down.
Mid-Tribulation Stage!
Late Tribulation Stage!
Peak Tribulation Stage!
...
Initial Mahayana Stage!
At the moment Yuan Shendao’s cultivation stepped into the Initial Mahayana Stage, his aura exploded out, shaking the sky and changing its color. Even the Blood Qi Power covering the entire Yin Yang Demon Sect was dispelled by this aura significantly.
However.
Initial Mahayana Stage was not the limit for Yuan Shendao.
In the breath following the breakthrough of the Initial Mahayana Stage, Yuan Shendao’s cultivation made another breakthrough, stepping directly into the peak of the Mid-Mahayana Stage.
Under the shroud of this terrifying aura, the majority of the strong cultivators of the Yin Yang Demon Sect were dumbfounded, seemingly unable to comprehend.
They never expected that their sect still hid such a powerful figure.
"Mid-Mahayana Stage!"
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s face was calm, but there was a hint of fear deep in his eyes.
The fact that the Yin Yang Demon Sect harbored a Reincarnation Mahayana was also unexpected to Demon Venerable Xuan Yin.
Moreover.
Observing the aura of Yuan Shendao, he was not just an ordinary Reincarnation Mahayana, his entire cultivation was close to the peak of the Mid-Mahayana Stage, only a step away from the prowess of Lv Chunyang back then.
Thinking of Lv Chunyang.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin felt a faint ache in his chest.
The sword strike from the opponent left a scar on him that hasn’t fully healed even now.
If he were at his peak, Demon Venerable Xuan Yin would naturally not fear one Lv Chunyang, on the contrary, killing the opponent wouldn’t be any harder than crushing an ant.
But now is different.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin had been sealed for many years, his strength severely depleted; it was only after devouring two Mahayana Stage beings and numerous living beings that he barely regained some Primordial Energy.
But the battle with Lv Chunyang nearly returned Demon Venerable Xuan Yin back to his original state.
On his way to the Yin Yang Demon Sect, Demon Venerable Xuan Yin devoured several other sects, barely recovering somewhat from his injuries, but his current strength still fell short of what it was before the battle with Lv Chunyang.
As such.
Facing yet another peak Mid-Mahayana Stage power brought unimaginable pressure to Demon Venerable Xuan Yin.
For the moment.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin thought of retreat.
He was not afraid of Yuan Shendao, but he did not want to suffer mutual destruction with him either.
As of now.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin also harbored some resentment towards Daoist Taiyuan.
If it weren’t for him passing down the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Technique, where would so many Reincarnation Mahayanas arise in the world, hidden so deeply with cultivation much more fearsome than newly ascended Mahayana.
However.
While Demon Venerable Xuan Yin considered retreating, Yuan Shendao had no intention of allowing him to leave so easily.
"Didn’t you say you want to destroy my Yin Yang Demon Sect? Let me see how much power you truly have!"
Yuan Shendao said sinisterly.
If it weren’t for the appearance of Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, would he have needed to resort to using the cultivation of his previous life?
Reactivating his previous life’s power now meant the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation Technique was utterly broken, leaving no chance for cultivation again.
Without cultivating the Nine Tribulations Reincarnation.
It was tantamount to severing the path to immortality.
Such actions.
Were no different from ending one’s own path.
This shows how furious Yuan Shendao was towards Demon Venerable Xuan Yin.
Therefore.
As Demon Venerable Xuan Yin intended to retreat, there was no way Yuan Shendao would allow him to leave so easily. As his words fell, Yuan Shendao struck with fury.
"Boom!"
The moment a peak Mid-Mahayana Stage expert made a move, the sky trembled, and the vast power surged like an apocalyptic torrent, crushing towards Demon Venerable Xuan Yin.
The latter saw this and was enraged, striking back directly.
Boom!
Rumble!
Both were supreme powers of the current era, and the clash between them was extremely intense. Under the raging waves, many cultivators were unable to dodge in time, swallowed and annihilated by the power.
Yuan Xiao hurriedly said, "Everyone, evacuate the sect immediately!"
With those words.
The disciples and elders all began to evacuate.
It was no joke.
When Mahayana experts fought.
It was not something they could safely watch up close.
The aftermath of such powerful battles could easily obliterate Void Refining cultivators, and those below Void Refining had no chance to defend against it.
"You destroyed my path, I’ll have you repay in blood!"
Yuan Shendao, now completely blinded by rage, attacked Demon Venerable Xuan Yin with everything he had, employing a strategy of mutual injury without holding back at all.
For a moment.
The pressure on Demon Venerable Xuan Yin increased tremendously.
In terms of strength, he was naturally not inferior to Yuan Shendao, but the problem was that the latter seemed utterly mad, which left Demon Venerable Xuan Yin a bit constrained.
When two combatants meet, unless there’s a huge disparity in strength, the will to fight can also decide the outcome.
Not long after.
Blood spilled.
Demon Venerable Xuan Yin roared in resentment and eventually tore through the void to escape.
Yuan Shendao slowly descended, with a bone-deep wound on his chest, nearly exposing his beating heart, just an inch away from it shattering, while holding a severed arm in his hand.
This severed arm showed no signs of bleeding, filled with an extremely terrifying cold aura.
"Ancestor!"
Yuan Xiao flew over and was shocked at the sight, his expression changed instantly.
The rage on Yuan Shendao’s face gradually faded, his expression turning indifferent once again. He looked down at his wounds, then his gaze fell on the severed arm.
"Demon Venerable Xuan Yin has been severely wounded by me. However, since he was determined to escape, I couldn’t keep him here, so keep a close watch on his whereabouts and report any movements immediately."
"Understood, master!"
